Orlando City grabbed the lead in the 21st minute. 18-year-old midfielder Luis Otávio made the most of a clean opportunity and smashed his shot past Charlotte goalkeeper Kristijan Kahlina’s right shoulder.
Charlotte FC defender Morrison equalized for The Crown in the 33rd minute with an impressive header — courtesy of a beautiful pass from a set piece via midfielder Pep Biel. Biel whipped the ball in, and Morrison used all of his 6-4 frame to out-leverage the Orlando defender attempting to contain him.
It marked the first MLS goal for the 21-year-old Ghanaian.
